Trainer is out on court now for The Young Greek, it is his elbow again

I knew something had to be wrong.

Trainer is out on court now for The Young Greek, it is his elbow again, though he has gone back on court now

He finally holds serve and avoids the donut, but still eating a parmesan breadstick

Still will be shocked if he finishes the match.

 

[Hailz]

The Botic Van de Zandschulp match seems like it has been going on for 8 hours now. It is in the 5th set at 5-4 Machac(whoever that is).

 

[kskate2]

Greek up a break 3-0

 

[Hailz]

Greek up a break 3-0

A 3rd set revival.

 

[Hailz]

Botic Van de Zandschulp survived a 5 set (10 hour) it seemed like it match to move on to the next round.

 

[kskate2]

Sonego vs the Stashe going to a decider. Greek takes the 3rd set. Fritz splits TB sets.

 

[Hailz]

The guy that Fritz is playing is another kid of a past tennis player. Brandon Holt is the son of Tracy Austin who I know as a commentator on the Tennis Channel but she did also have a good tennis career back in the day.

Brandon Holt, qualifer, son of Tracy Austin, is leading 10th seed Taylor Fritz 2 sets to 1

^^And up a break in the 4th

Good for him, I watched him qualifer, his mum was as proud as punch

 

[Hailz]

Just on this 1st day there have been 3 players(Korda. Mandlik, and possibly Holt) who are kids of past tennis players who could all win.

 

[Hailz]

The Tsitsipas and Galan match is turning into an epic match.

The Tsitsipas and Galan match is turning into an epic match.

Galan had a BP in the 4th set to win the match could not convert

 

[kskate2]

The Greek was up a break. He must have gave it all back. They are at 5-5 now

I saw them all including Tracy Austin at 14 years old in her first USO in 1977 on clay back in Forest Hills! I was a junior in college and I saw her defeat #4 Sue Barker, then a Romanian, Virginia Ruzici! Her run ended with the big girls, a double specialist by the name of Betty Stove that powered her right off the court! Little did we know she would be back to win in 2 years!

14 years old. That is how old I am right now. God that would be so amazing to be playing on those courts at the age I am right now.
